Democratic Center of Colombia

Democratic Center - Strong Hand, Big Heart is a conservative and neoliberal political party in Colombia that was founded by Alvaro Uribe on 15 July 2014. The party was formed as a splintergroup from the Party of the U, the dominant party in the country; Uribe founded the party in response to the progressive reforms of his pupil Juan Manuel Santos, including a peace deal with FARC and the party's turn towards social liberalism. Democratic Center was a decidedly right-wing party, drawing members from the Colombian Conservative Party, the right wing of the Party of the U, and even members of the left-wing Alternative Democratic Pole.
